What would you guys do?
 

Hi,

When I bought my brz I asked my sales person that nobody drive it due to the crucial (according to subaru) 1000 mile break in. My salesman agreed. When I picked the car up it had 30 kms on it, he said this was driving from ports to the train etc.. When I looked at my inspection sticker it said the car had 8kms on it when it arrived at the dealership which seems about right. I was pretty pissed, that could have been a pretty hard 22 first kilometers. What would you guys do, I have an email into my salesman letting him know my thoughts.

Well honestly a kind of hard break in is good for the car, but not WOT and redlining it. Personally I would show proof as you said with the sticker and demand some forms of compensation.

Yeah, that's a hard call. I know when I got my car it had 11 KM on it and my dealer told me that they had to drive it a bit further than usual so they could fill it at a station with 94 octane.

30 KM's seems like a bit much. Maybe somebody at the dealership is interested in it and wanted to see how it drives. I doubt they were redlining it but the hard thing is that you don't know. It's really a shame. Crappy dealer.

Got mine at 9miles. :)

Talk to the manager.

got mine at 1 mile

wait for another one if it really bothers you.

They have their own premium gas pump right on site? :P

gas station was next door. :w00t:

i drove there with my sales rep and got a full tank using their card

Car was built at the dealer too, right? ;)

Not unheard of. I got my MS3 with 2 miles on it.

Oh I know it's possible. I remember seeing an article how a Lambo was built on sight for an art exhibit (or something like that) since it was too big to fit in between the doors of the building.

If true that's the record. Most have been arriving with ~6 miles to the dealer. Mine had 6 as well, 8 after fillup/PDI, 10 after my test drive. 1870 now :P

Had 7 on mine when I picked it up. Sitting at around 1080 at the moment. :happy0180:

why are you guys shocked? it's not the first time cars are delivered with 1 on the odo
